High tack, high shear strength double-sided tape holds firmly to create a permanent, simple overlap splice. If splice is scheduled for additional coating or other printing operations, tape down trailing or leading edge with a 3M single coated tape.

Process
Press 3M™ Repulpable Double Coated Splicing Tape 405 across the trailing edge of the paper at the start of the roll. Remove the liner. Press the edge of the paper from the next roll on top of the 3M tape to form an overlap splice.
